7. Kimura

This submission move is named after judo great Masahiko Kimura, who used the move to snap MMA legend Helio Gracie’s arm in a match in 1955. Applied from either the guard or side-control positions, the fighter in guard will grab the opponent’s hand or wrist, open his own guard and sit up or rotate to the side. The fighter will then reach over his foe’s arm that’s being held by the hand, grab his own wrist and start pushing the prone opponent’s arm away from his body, moving it toward his head. This lock hyper rotates the shoulder and has been used as a successful submission move in several notable fights.
